STD Rates Rise Dramatically Around the Country


WTKR.com:
The news in this year’s Centers for Disease Control and Prevention report on sexually transmitted diseases is not good.

The number of cases of chlamydia and gonorrhea in the United States increased between 2013 and 2014, after being on the decline for several years. Cases of syphilis, which have been on the rise for the last decade, shot up in 2014.

Chlamydia, gonorrhea and syphilis are the three most common STDs in the United States that are also notifiable, meaning health departments are required to report new cases to the CDC. (HIV and shigella are also notifiable STDs.)

Chlamydia is the most common and can damage a woman’s reproductive system. The report found that in 2014 there were more than 1.4 million cases of chlamydia, or about 456 for every 100,000 people. There are about 350,000 cases (or 111 for every 100,000 people) of gonorrhea, which causes infections. And there are nearly 20,000 cases (six for every 100,000 people) of syphilis, which if left untreated can lead to serious complications, including blindness.
Hey, with social liberals dismissing self-responsibility and sexual debauchery being more and more accepted in the far-Left, Obama era, it's no wonder this generation is so literally sick.
